I'm looking for examples of the Mamiya Sketch and Mamiya Wide E 35mm rangefinders...I'd love to have (or be able to afford) one of the rare, original curved nameplate Mamiya Prismat SLRs, or the unique Mamiya Mammy (c.1953). I'm also looking for a front lens cap that will fit either the Mamiya CS or SX 14mm fisheye lens. ACTUALLY, THIS FRONT LENS CAP IS THE ITEM I WOULD LIKE TO FIND FIRST. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL LENS, AND IT SCARES ME NOT TO HAVE THE CAP TO PROTECT THE GLASS! |

Hey Herron,
Do you shoot much? I'd love to see some examples of shots through this camera, and a bunch more that you have too ;- )
Cheers
Jules

Jules:
I already have quite a few shots posted in various threads in this Forum. Unfortunately, none with this lens. I do have shots made with it (or one very similar).
I traded the 14mm Mamiya SX lens shown - even up - to a friend of mine in Germany, for the similar 14mm Mamiya CS lens that actually fits the NC1000s mount without an adapter. I've never gotten around to taking a picture of the camera with the correct lens on it!
I'll try to dig out a couple of the images, scan and post them.
By the way - I'm STILL looking for the lens cap!

It’s a ZE quartz with a Mamiya 50mm lens. I do so like Mamiyas, of course I have a c330, a c330s, a 645AFD, and now a ZEQ. OY, when will it ever end?? Jules PS your website is excellent, top of the line. Thanks much. |

Jules, thanks for the kind words about the web site...it has definitely been a labor of love for the past several years. I only wish I could find a way to make it pay for itself (as well as support my collecting habit)  The Mamiya NC1000 is still my favorite Mamiya...but I have the most fun with some of the old rangefinders! I still have to dig out and scan some images made with that 14mm CS lens, however! But, if everyone starts getting as hooked as I am on Mamiya, the auction prices are going to go up! ;D |

I'm still looking for a Mamiya Sketch rangefinder...  ...I'd also love to find (I'll afford it one way or another!) one of the original curved nameplate Mamiya Prismat SLRs (working or not), like this one:  Anyone finds one that's available...please let me know! |
